Going Under Poems | Examples


Going Under

Thoughts in my mind,
Racing on a track.
I open my eyes,
To a world that's pitch black.

Darkness surrounds me,
Fear takes the wheel.
There's no seat belt for me,
I pray it's not real.  

Pictures of despair,
Enter my vision.
Hell is on my earth,
Rising with a mission.

I scream loud and long,
Until my voice leaves me.
Silent sobs continue,
Is this how my end will be?

A push sends me down,
Flames flicker and burn.
I fall into the pit of sin,
Past the point of no return.

Going Under

Going under....

? Sitting here alone on the beach
My LOVES presence out of reach
In one swift motion
My feet lead to the Ocean
God have to see you soon
I gaze up at the moon
I am your love slave
 struck by a cold wave
THIS is BEYOND normal
missing wanting & needing
its about barely BREATHING
its about wanting to drown
Because YOUR not around
 emptiness starts to ensue
Your my air gotta breathe YOU
Im going down sucked in the undertow
Need YOU to rescue me before I let go
Longing for my love & best friend
Each day sinking slowly in the deep end
Cant hold on much longer im going under
Hold my breath and I wonder
cant  be Gods plan to wash away at sea
So MANY things in the future for u and me
will fight swim harder cant quit
You are my life vest among all the ********
Just than gasp for air breathe free
Because it was YOUR LOVE that rescued ME

Going Under

Falling into a dark abyss.
Sucking all the life out of me.
Losing my faith in everything.
Can't think of anything positive.

Touching something that's not apart of me.
losing myself in your world.
killing me softly.
knowing that I won't live long.

I've lost it all,
my mind, my heart.
Everything seems so good,
but it's not what it seems.

I'm going under!
I'm not apart of this place anymore.
Its physical touch is gone.
Now i'm lost in your world.

Going Under

 Going under to a new life to save myself, going under to a new world to help myself. I reach this place I want to be having no idea hoe to act. Uncomfortable everywhere I go, going back to the place I hate but know. Going under is no more.

Going Under

I’m going under
Sinking fast
Weighted down
By the memories of the past

I’m going under
Strength is growing thin
Waiting for the moment
When I can breathe again

I’m going under
My soul is crying out
With my head under water
You cannot hear my shouts

Reaching for your hand
Will you be the one
The one to save this man
I am placing my trust within you
And I do believe
That you will pull me through
As new air fills my lungs
I know that you heard my cry
Thank you Lord
I was going under
And thought that I would die

The End

I'M Going Under

.

              Crack 
 
       Across my head 
               with
         ball and chain

              Down
       i’m going under

Awkwardly I sit and muse

              does 
               she
              laugh

Going Under

Am I destined to be forever in pain?
Will any smile of mine be real?
I've fallen so deep beneath the surface,
that I can feel the warmth of the sun no more.
My life is nothing, I am nothing.
My past and present are full of lies,
only with more to come in the future.
This is everyday for me,
Pain and tears nothing more.
The birds song is sung for everyone,
but me.
It lies so near,
My escape from this darkness.
But I live in a prison and I can't grasp it,
Im trapped behind these invisible bars.
I reach for the happiness,
I feel it so close,
but I get pulled under,
and the pain floods over me again.
And Im sure if I break the surface,
and I feel the happiness for once in my life,
everything that blocked me from the world,
will be shattered.
But how do you break invisible bars?
What is it to feel something thats so new to you?
Theres nothing I can do,
Im being pulled down again.
Down to the deep darkness of nothing,
Im going under and i wont be back.
